All good suggestions, might I add one more from experience. As this is a new
rebuild I?m guess everything has recently been apart and back together. My 3
had a similar problem that it just wouldn?t pull past around 3500rpm, felt like
valve float. Not sure how I thought to check but the adjustment for the
throttle linkage was out of wack, butterfly would only open around 2/3.
Working with the linkage and the stop bolt behind the pedal created a whole new
level of performance. One caution: Do Not adjust so the the butterflies act
as throttle stops, new problems will ensue.
Thanks to SWMBO for siting and depressing the pedal, over and over, while I
fiddled.

Is it possible the distributor shaft bronze bushings could be worn just enough
that at higher RPM that extra clearance or possible wobble could affect the
timing of the points action and gap, and/or the rotor to cap timing and
spacing?

Spark Plug wires will fail under load like that. That'd be my first thought
before plugs, especially with electronic ignition and especially if you're
running anything other than copper core wires. Then the distributor cap and
rotor. Some of the older rotors were sketchy.
Have fun!
